How to highlight textinputlayout on focus without bringing the keypad up - android

I am trying to design a control of TextInputLayout, on click of which a pop up will appear to select item. I want to highlight this TextInputLayout when clicked that means showing floating label but don't want to show the keypad of edit text.
Please note: I am using TextInputLayout Edit text because i want the look of floating label when an item is selected.
Thank you

What is the use of "android:hintAnimationEnabled" in TextInputLayout?

1.What is the use of android:hintAnimationEnabled in TextInputLayout?
2.What is the difference between android:hintAnimationEnabled and android:hintEnabled?
1.What is the use of android:hintAnimationEnabled in TextInputLayout?
When you click (focus) on an empty EditText with hint, the hint text animates and slides upwards. android:hintAnimationEnabled allows you to enable or disable this animation.
Check the image below:
2.What is the difference between android:hintAnimationEnabled and android:hintEnabled?
android:hintEnabled was added in design library 23.2.0.
android:hintEnabled="true" (Enabled) : Shows the hint floating on the top of EditText when focused or when having text set into the EditText
android:hintEnabled="false" (Disabled) : Doesn't show the hint floating on top of EditText, it means, the hint is visible at the same place when empty EditText is focussed and vanishes off as soon as the first character is entered.
In short, android:hintAnimationEnabled enables/disables the hint animation while android:hintEnabled enables/disables the floating behaviour of hint.
Have a look at this. It has a clear view of TextInputLayout hintAnimation

UPDATE
When you set a hint in TextInputLayout is shows as like as a normal textView Hint. But when user click on EditText the hint slide and goes little upwards.
And , if you disable hint animation, then it won't show any animation for hint text.
I'll give you a hint ;)
Animation is a different property than the Hint text being there at all
In other words, you can't animate something that's disabled. But you don't need animation to show the value
You're welcome to read what the difference is. https://developer.android.com/reference/android/support/design/widget/TextInputLayout.html

How to add a share button to the text selection bar for an EditText?

I notice that when highlighting text in a WebView a share button appears along with the standard copy and select all buttons:
but when highlighting text in a TextView or EditText, there is no such button.
Is there any way to add such a button via XML or can it be done programmatically?
You can achieve that by setting a custom selection action mode using
TextView.setCustomSelectionActionModeCallback(ActionMode.Callback)
and so the EditText
Here's a similar question with that was answered with an example
